If the accent doesn’t completely befuddle ‘em, then a phoneline with excessive static cling and an accent most certainly will. I’m just in the midst of phoning round a few fabrication shops to see if they could quote me on a stainless steel planter job.
The poor saps thought I was asking for a stainless steel plumber, a stainless steel plank, a painful wheel crank and a sheet metal gob job. (Can’t wait to look at my search term referrals next week!)
Hopefully, everything is a little clearer now it’s been written down and sent in an email, but if it isn’t, I really am in bother.
